But we have this treasure in jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from us. We are hard pressed on every side, but not crushed; perplexed, but not in despair; persecuted, but not abandoned; struck down, but not destroyed.” 2 Corinthians 4:7. let your light shine through your cracked pot. Ring the bells that still can ring, Forget your perfect offering, there is a crack in everything, That's how the light gets in.

One of the greatest occurrences of leb is in Deuteronomy 6:5, which commands Israel to love the Lord “with all your heart.” Jesus placed a great emphasis on this sentence; in Mark 12:29,30, Jesus answered him, “The foremost of all the commandments is: ‘Hear, O Israel, the LORD our God, the LORD is one. ‘And you shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ …”

Jeremiah17:9, 10 says, “The heart is deceitful above all things, and is desperately wicked (incurably sick, hence Jeremiah 24:7) Who can know it? I, the LORD, search the heart, I test the mind (most secret place); even to give every man according to his ways, according to the fruit of his doings.”

The heart is declared the most deceitful thing in the world, but verse 10 declares that the Lord is still able to sort out and analyze what lies within the heart. Just a word of caution for all of us, this searching in the O.T. is still valid in the N.T. see Revelation 2:23. …”I am He who searches the minds and hearts. And will give to each one of you according to your works.”
